It was no secret that this kid was a mess off the field. And the falcons still decided to trade away a first round pick to take him. That's just negligence on their part.

He had character concerns and off the field red flags pre draft. That's enough to take him off a lot of people's board but I dunno if anyway foresaw how bad how fast it was going to get. 

It was really bad but from the sound of it, it could've been a lot worse

People actually wanted us to take him too. This was not a hindsight 20/20 thing either. Fug the falcons get what you deserve. Hope the lady he assaulted gets every penny from him too

More worried he might kill someone than if he sacks QBs

Sucks to be them 

So sad

All that over juwanna man

Well they will just have to draft another pass rusher in the first round this year…oh wait.

f ‘em. I mean I feel sorry for the people he hurt. And sad that he is clearly a deeply troubled and unhealthy young man. But f the falcons. They knew all this about him and hired him anyways.

Many Falcons’ fans are rooting for him to return quickly. Seems split 50/50 within their fanbase.

Dude is evil and a serious danger to society.

That's incredibly embarrassing for Falcons fans if true.

Sadly, the guy probably would have not gotten a bad punishment if he didn't get the battery of a law enforcement charge.

Guy is fuged. And honestly reading that his father was telling his ex (rickea Jackson) to watch out for his son is pretty damning. Pearce needs help ASAP before he does something far, far worse

Really? I hate the falcons and their fans, but most of their reddit have said it's inexcusable what he has done, he won't play another game for them, and hate their front office for ignoring his red flags trading up for him
